The start point for the best source of fleet information |
Along with salary sacrifice, it's the in-house developed Drive Secure risk management system that Boyd views as having the biggest potential. Several leasing companies have already enquired about white-label use of the system, she claims, but the firm also has big plans for its electronic system that's designed to automate the process of keeping drivers safe. From eye tests to document uploads, tyre tread and pressure input and driver training, the system requires minimal driver input and can cater for company lease car drivers, grey fleet, salary sacrifice and occasional users. "It's a risk management portal and the system was developed to recommend and act to help solve problems rather than highlight them," says Ewen.
One example surrounds eye tests. If a driver clicks to say their eye test is outstanding, a voucher for a free test at Specsavers is automatically issued, and when the voucher is used the system is updated to show that the driver is no longer overdue a check.
Driver training is similarly devised. "Typically in the industry we do it over three months and then the driver's behaviour improves but drops off rapidly," says Boyd. "We drip-feed over three years and companies can prioritise based on their needs."
